[Feature request] Allow customizing filenames of downloaded files about instalooter HOT 4 CLOSED

Feature is out, here's the gist of it:
use the -T flag to give a template, using Python default template system ({value}) with the following available variables: ownerid, username, fullname, id, code, date, datetime, width, height, likescount, commentscount.

So for instance:

instaLooter profile dir -T {date}.{username}.{id}
instaLooter profile dir -T {date}.{username}.{id}
instaLooter profile dir -T anything_constant.{code}
instaLooter profile dir -T {width}x{height}.{likescount}.{id}

Just take care to use a unique identifier (either id, code or datetime) somewhere to avoid name collision.
Please be aware that some variables (username and fullname) require an extra lookup, so using them is costly when you are downloading pictures from a hashtag (on a single profile, the lookup is never done since metadata already contain the intel about the owner).

Hi JFLarsen, thanks for feedback :)
If using the --add-metadata option, the upload date will be added to the exif (using the online Instagram date timestamp).

For the name, i'll start thinking of a nice way to customize the filenames, stay tuned !

Please comment if you have trouble with this feature, and I'll reopen the issue.

Do you know of a way to batch rename already downloaded images? I mean, renaming from the EXIF tagdata. I tried using exiftool and py3exiv2, but couldn't do the job.
